Connect with the speaker?

Dr. Major-Kincade was first introduced to America over 20 years ago as the young Neonatologist featured on ABC’s Houston Medical when her patient died unexpectedly on national television. She received her bachelor’s degree from Prairie View A&M University and her Medical and Master’s in Public Health Degrees from UCLA. She is a highly requested keynote speaker known in the industry for her authenticity and compassion in discussing challenging topics around racial health disparities and neonatal palliative care. Dr. Terri is a two-time best-selling author and has been featured in Ebony, NBC, Huggies, and Black Doctor.Org. She currently serves as Chair for the Texas March of Dimes Steering Committee for African American Outreach as well as Chair for the Health Equity and Diversity Inclusion Committee for the National Board of Pregnancy Loss and Infant Death Alliance (PLIDA) and The Return To Zero HOPE Foundation. Dr. Terri’s greatest passion is empowering families to take care of their premature infants before, during, and the afterlife in the NICU through informed choices made easy and empowering health care providers to assist families in making difficult choices through her books, her blogs, her talks, her soon to be launched podcast and direct patient care. She likes to say that her mission is to provide hope for the journey. One baby, one family, one hospital, one community at a time. To pause for the Gift of Hope.
